Chessie 4053 Silver Springs

Five Chessie cats drift past the Conrail station in Silver Springs, NY on July 18, 1986. The Chessie road trains would stop up on the hill and come down and work the salt plant in Silver Springs in the final days of the BR&P 4th Sub. This work used to be done by the Leroy Switcher, which had been abolished. There were only a couple days left before the Borg took over the line. This was the next to last RS-97.
